Top Safety and Security Application
  • Q-WARN: Queue Warning
  • Key data and communication needs discussion points
    • Can use variety of mobile wireless comm.
    • Need queue detection technology , whether probes (highly preferred) or infrastructure
    • Need sufficient warning time
    • Synergies with req’ts for other safety applications as well as dynamic speed harmonization
    • Distinguish between warning and alert: this is more of an alert
  • Key research needs
    • Tuning algorithm: parameters for triggering and sending alerts, and response time for alerts
    • Queue detection algorithms
    • HMI and driver distraction
    • Develop arterial/intersection extension to this application or to other hazards, e.g., work zones, fog, etc.
  • How close can this application bring us to the transformative target?
    • One study: About half of rear-end freeway crashes are end of queue crashes
